use A from commandline in if

[_pi]

why does value == "destroy" not work ?

Code:

Copy      Help

function [$arg1] [$value]
str v = value

act win(mouse)
if (value == "destroy"); ja
if (v == "destroy"); ja    

;clo+
out _s.format("%s = %s" arg1 value)

and what exactly is _s ?

thanks

The type of the value variable is lpstr. When using == with a lpstr variable, it compares pointers to strings, not strings. To compare strings, use strcmp or q_stricmp. These functions return 0 if strings are equal. Or, use sel.

Code:

Copy      Help

if(!strcmp(value "destroy")) ja
;or
sel(value) case "destroy" ja

_s is local str variable. _i is local int variable. These variables are used without declaring.

thanks for teaching me.

here is my result:

Code:

Copy      Help

function [$arg1]
act win(mouse)

sel(arg1)
,case "destroy" clo+
,case else clo

i trigger the function from strokeit, draw C for close and D for destroy window.

close window [C]
qmcl.exe M "close_window"
destroy window [D]
qmcl.exe M "close_window" A "destroy""

***
what about an alternative syntax for commandline ?
i have problems talking from a firefox extension to qm.
there is a problem with quotes.

qmcl.exe /pi_mode /close_window /destroy

[_pi]

how do i use

Q c Use c (any nonspace character) instead of " to enclose file, macro and command.

M "Macro"

v

Q ^ M ^Macro^
